Protege GX Integration
Protege GX integration with the entry station provides the option of directory access with user synchronization, or
system module integration including monitoring, access control and building management functionality.
Directory Integration
Directory integration synchronizes Protege GX user records with the entry station's directory. Directory listings
automatically synchronize and display on the entry station, and can be accessed from the touchscreen to call
tenants listed in the directory. Tenants can unlock a door or allow elevator access using valid Protege GX
credentials.
Module Integration
Protege GX module integration with the entry station allows it to communicate with any Protege GX controller to
control physical devices connected to the Protege GX network. When the entry station is integrated with Protege
GX, you can program functions that enable users to use the touchscreen to unlock the doors leading to their
apartment, trigger lighting along the way, and authorize elevator access to the appropriate floor.
User PIN encryption: Integration with Protege GX requires the entry station to access and validate user PIN
codes, via the Protege GX SOAP service. If the
Encrypt User PINs
feature is enabled the SOAP service is not
able to view user PINs, therefore the entry station is not able to integrate with Protege GX.
Protege GX Integration Prerequisites
The following sections outline how to populate the entry station's directory with Protege GX users, and program
integrated functionality including opening a door and providing elevator access using the entry station, and
viewing the camera feed and answering calls at a Protege GX workstation.
Controllable devices can also be configured to be activated as part of the trigger sequence when a PIN is entered.
Additional configuration for these devices is beyond the scope of this document.
Entry station integration with Protege GX requires:
⦁
An operational Protege GX system.
If integrating elevator/floor access control, requires Protege GX version 4.2 or higher.
⦁
The Protege GX SOAP Service installed, licensed and operational.
If integrating elevator/floor access control, requires Protege GX SOAP Service version 1.5.0.17 or higher.
⦁
An operational Protege Vandal Resistant Touchscreen Entry Station.
If integrating elevator/floor access control, requires Protege Vandal Resistant Touchscreen Entry Station
firmware version 1.12.157 or higher.
⦁
One Protege GX Client License (PRT-GX-CLNT) is required for each entry station that is integrated with
Protege GX. Please contact ICT if you require additional client licenses.
